Garden

Today the sun shone and temperatures rose enough for the ground to thaw and for us to garden happily without coats. We made the most of it and set about tidying some of the damage done by a couple of weeks of very cold weather, and a bit of snow. Lucius is next to our very healthy looking garlic on her left

The broccoli was a bit burned by the cold, but the sprouts were great and the beets were passing themselves off as purple parsnips

The garden is not yet bursting back to life, but that makes for lovely colors and textures (as with these cardoons)
